+/- - Focuses on small details, Jaq likes to do things perfectly, however this can lead to him taking longer than he should on certain things.

- - Loose-tongued, because he is honest and blunt about his thought, Jaq can say things that sometimes makes people uncomfortable or offends them.
- - Cynical, Jaq has a very dark perception of the universe and his place in it (which has also lead to him having some nihilistic beliefs).
- - Stand-offish, Jaq has a hard time communicating effectively and relating to other people, which can lead to some awkward situations.
Biography:
Formative Years/Childhood:
Jaq Edward Marshall was born on Corellia to a lower-middle class family. His mother was a local medic, and helped heal minor injuries, his father was an engineer with the Corellian Engineering Corporation. Jaq's formative years were fairly uneventful. However, at a young age he became interested in the work that his father was doing, many hours of his childhood was spent listening to his father explain the inner workings of starships, and Jaq enjoyed going to work with his father to look at the engines being made. But life for Jaq and his parents changed when he was around eleven years old, his parents had fallen behind on debt repayments and the person who they owed the money to put a bounty on their heads. To avoid this bounty, and to try and maintain a relative normal life for their soon, they quietly escaped Corellia and traveled to Tatooine to start a new life.
Teenage Years:
Jaq hated life on Tatooine, he had trouble making friends at school and quickly got known as a weird introvert. His parents were drinking most nights and would come home arguing, so he grew to resent them. At his home he would spend a lot of his time reading droid manuals and different starship manuals. He stopped going to school and took up a fulltime job repairing stuff for a junker, and often got to take the starships he repaired out for quick test flights. At the age of seventeen he decided that he needed to get off of the barren planet and away from his parents. He began doing work for the Hutts, smuggling cargo to other planets. After a few years he bought a used YT-2400 and decided to go freelance with his smuggling.
Early Twenties:
Jaq spent his early adulthood learning the tricks of the trade when it came to smuggling. While delivering the smuggled goods he became familiar with the different trade routes and smuggling routes around the Outer Rim. He made some professional connections during these times and was led to the Outer Rim Coalition, he liked the idea of being a part of something more meaningful, something that agreed with the sense of freedom that he wanted to have, and it allowed him to pursue what he enjoyed most, smuggling and piloting. He looked forward to the adventures he was going to have ahead of him...
Inventory:
YT-2400 light freighter, this is Jaq's main mode of transportation, it hasn't been heavily modified in any way (yet).
DL-18 Blaster Pistol, Jaq usually has this on him, just in case.
DH-17 Blaster Pistol, Jaq keeps this near his pilot seat on his YT-2400.
He carries a knife which is similar to a Kal, this usually stays concealed and he hasn't had to use it much.
